eVGA GeForce GTX 465 SC review -
Introduction

The GeForce GTX 465 from NVIDIA launched a good week or two ago. A reasonably interesting graphics cards as despite it is based on the initial 40nm Fermi GF100 architecture, NVIDIA managed to put a product out on the market, that does not run very hot and is not at all noisy. A Fermi product that should be more affordable yet has less active shader processors at it's disposal and the memory configuration is now brought down towards 1024 MB (gDDR5/256-bit). This all means that several other shader clusters inside that GPU have been disabled, on a card that looks like the Siamese twin of the GeForce GTX 470.

Currently we get a lot of requests from AIBs to get these cards reviewed. So last week we showed you the products from Point of View and SLI results, and in this round we take a look at eVGA's offering.

eVGA will be putting a lot of SKUs on the market based in several gradations. We'll have a look in particular at the GeForce GTX 465 SC model, with SC short for Super Clocked. The SuperClock editions are typically pre-overclocked offerings from eVGA with a nice and hefty overclock, all done at default for you. This time around we find ourselves a little puzzled as to why eVGA put a 'Super Clocked' edition logo on this product as really, the pre-overclock is so small that you'll hardly even notice a performance difference over the baseline product. It kind of weird to see that though, as the the SC model can really reach extreme clock frequencies as we'll show you later on in our manual overclocking session.

So all in all we'll have a lot to talk about ! Have a peek at the product, and then head onwards to the next page where we'll go a little deeper into the architecture that is empowering the GeForce GTX 465.

EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW2 reviewWe check out the EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW2 iCX 8G, and heck yeah this is not your regular one. Meet the all custom, cooled and tweaked EVGA For The Win2 Edition. This SKU is a more premium version...

EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Classified reviewWe review the EVGA GeForce GTX 780 Classified, this graphics card is equipped with NVIDIA's second to best flagship GPU. Combined with an all custom PCB design and a lot of tweaking features this product will be enticing for a lot of you guys.
